Hyperoctahedral group

Summary

The hyperoctahedral groups are a family of mathematical groups that arise as the group of symmetries of the square, the cube, and their higher-dimensional counterparts (the hypercubes), as well as the corresponding dual polytopes (the regular octahedron and its higher-dimensional counterparts, the cross-polytopes). There is one hyperoctahedral group for each dimension nn.
